2012-05-18ccache: allow dynamic selection of cache directoryThomas De Schampheleire
The existing ccache infrastructure sets the cache directory hardcoded in the ccache binary. As this directory was set to ~/.buildroot-ccache, the cache is not necessarily local (e.g. in corporate environments the home directories may be mounted over NFS.) Previous versions of buildroot did allow to set the cache directory, but this was also hardcoded (so you had to rebuild ccache to change it), plus that support was removed. See http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/buildroot/2011-July/044511.html for a discussion on this. This patch modifies ccache to respect a new shell variable (exported from the Makefile, based on a configuration option) instead of CCACHE_DIR. The name CCACHE_DIR itself is already used by autotargets for the ccache package.

2012-03-08ccache: set COMPILERCHECK to 'none'Thomas Petazzoni
This allows ccache to re-use its cache contents even if the compiler binary mtime has changed. It is the simplest approach to solve this problem, and it works for the internal, external and crosstool-ng toolchain backends. Of course, it leaves the user responsible for invalidating the cache when necessary, but there doesn't seem to be a real good solution that allows both to: 1/ keep the cache contents accross builds and re-use it and 2/ invalidate the cache automatically when the compiler chances in an incompatible way.

2012-03-08ccache: Force ccache to use its internal zlibThomas Petazzoni
The problem is that without this, ccache would link against the zlib of the build system, but we might build and install a different version of zlib in $(O)/host afterwards, which ccache will pick up. This might break if there is a version mismatch. A solution would be to add host-zlib has a dependency of ccache, but it would require tuning the zlib .mk file to use HOSTCC_NOCCACHE as the compiler. Instead, we take the easy path: tell ccache to use its internal copy of zlib, so that ccache has zero dependency besides the C library. Fixes bug #4808. Thanks to Raúl Sánchez Siles <rsanchezs@infoglobal.es> for reporting the bug and testing the proposed solution.

2011-09-29package: remove useless arguments from AUTOTARGETSThomas Petazzoni
Thanks to the pkgparentdir and pkgname functions, we can rewrite the AUTOTARGETS macro in a way that avoids the need for each package to repeat its name and the directory in which it is present.

2010-12-08ccache: rework ccache managementThomas Petazzoni
* ccache is now a normal package (both for the host and the target). * ccache option is now part of the "Build options" menu. It will automatically build ccache for the host before building anything, and will use it to cache builds for both host compilations and target compilations. * bump ccache to 3.1.3 Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard <jacmet@sunsite.dk>
